Well…maybe we shouldn’t blame Mother Nature…maybe the Weather Person(s) that we decide to put so much faith into their predictions…LOL! It was very disappointing that we cancelled our original HL Campground Site Selection meeting for 3/2/14, especially for the dismal “storm” that really never showed up! However, we WILL be holding the (rescheduled) meeting this Sunday 3/9/17…same time….same place (1:00PM @ the HL Clubhouse)! Hope to see lots of our campers there, New & Seasoned, alike. Also, want to apologize to those that did not get the word about the cancellation. This is why it is important to be electronically “connected” for ease of notification, as well as, staying current with what is happening! Please remember to submit your email addresses at one of the meetings (which you can share on the meeting sign up sheets always present at EVERY meeting) or join the blog and I will try to keep you up to date as well as you can message me! Thanks! Cheryl Fry

…we’re looking for adventure….for whatever comes our way! Born to be w-i-l-d. Yes it’s almost that time! Officially the 2013 Heritage Lake Camping Season begins on April 5th at 1PM. I’m excited for the fun to begin! But with the crap Mother Nature has been dealing us as of lately…one can only hope that winter hits the road & we can start to enjoy better weather! If you remember, last year it was unseasonably warmer than it should have been for this time of year. Sadly though we really never had a spring last year, it skipped practically from winter to summer. But, this year I just want the cold, snowy, windy weather to take a hike & for it to just be comfortable enough to enjoy the amenities at the start of camping season….how about you?

That being said, it was decided that turning on the water in the campgrounds should be delayed a little longer to make sure we didn’t have any mishaps with frozen, burst pipes in the campground. We sure don’t want to waste a bunch of money having to do unnecessary plumbing, let alone cutting into our camping season by delaying the “opening day”!!!

We are fortune to have Barb Woods return for another season as the Campground Manager, along with her equally hardworking other half…Ed. Unfortunately for them, they have been unable to stay in their camper yet, due to the delay of turning on the water. Not so sure these seasonal Floridians favored the weather they returned to…makes a body wonder…why trade that weather for this? But we’re certainly glad they did!

REMINDER: We’re having a “Welcome Back” family movie night & campfire at the shelter house starting at 8PM on Saturday night (April 6th). We’ll have the wood stove all stoked up & blazing. So bring your snacks, beverages of choice, comfy chairs, & probably warm blankets for the kick off of the 2013 Camping Season. If there’s enough campers, we might even run our first 50-50 drawing. We’ll see you there!
